Week Nine!

This week in child development we learned more bout toddler development and did many activities that are supposed to promote their development. on Monday we did an activity with shaving cream that is very popular with daycare centers. on Friday we did a set of activities involving yarn, noodles, painting pumpkins for Halloween, play-doh and more. and in between those days we just did notes in class. overall, toddler development is my favorite stage so far.

Week Eight!

This week in child development we didn't learn anything new. We started working on our infant development environment project. We took our knowledge of physical, social and emotional development needs and created a daycare center appealing to the needs of infants. It took all week to create different elements of the daycare but overall it was an easy and fun project. Aniyah (my partner) and I worked very well together and got the assignment done in time.

Week 7

This week in child development, we created our own infant toy. We worked together in our groups to develop a children's toy, focusing on either social, physical or emotional development. Yesterday we worked on a sensory activity/ lesson plan for working with infants. I created a color mixing activity to go along with painting and reading a book afterwards. This weekend I have to take home the real care baby and take care of it. Hoping to get the effect of caring for a real infant.
